Gotta Serve Somebody

“We should be serving people. Is 60% serving the people?” said Akron Mayor Daniel Horrigan… going from majority rule to 60% rule that’s pretty significant of a change,” said Horrigan. [More]

So I guess he really hates the federal requirements and considers his judgment superior to the Framers’. Nothing like changing the Constitution by ginned-up mob rule to guarantee somebody will be served.

Daniel’s the same Democrat liar (but I repeat myself) who wants us to believe infringements against you and me are what would have saved Na’kia, Mar’Viyah, and MiKayla.

Ohio gun owners: What are you doing to make Issue 1 truth a priority?

Returning to the Ashes

Phoenix City Council approves plan to send hundreds of unclaimed guns to Ukrainian police force – No city or taxpayer funds will be used to transport the weapons, the council agenda item said. [More]

No, but funds will be used to process this, and more will be forfeited by “giving away” what could be sold. If they’re so flush they can afford that, I guess they won’t really be needing any tax increases. Right?

Ain’t it just like Democrats — giving away what’s not theirs and then taking credit for being generous? Exactly the opposite of the way true generosity is supposed to be.

I wonder if this was Yassamin’s big idea…?

Enemy Action

It would be hard to convince me that this is a normal routine inspection and not an effort at retribution by the Justice Department and their henchmen at BATFE. [More]

Biden’s DOJ puts the squeeze on an FFL who’s suing over bump stocks. The tyrannical pettiness reminds me of Red’s Trading Post.

So if it’s not happenstance and it’s not a coincidence, what does that leave us?

I became aware of this soon after I announced my slowdown. I was thinking of maybe doing an article, but I couldn’t do a better job than John Richardson has done, so why not just go read what he has to say?

Why Not?

[More]

It’s available. The narrative shapers just don’t want you to see it:

The New York Post pointed to two photos posted by Carriker on his Facebook page March 27, 2022, where he’s visibly wearing a bra and women’s top with earrings and has braided hair associated with women.

Some things can’t be unseen:

Funny, how the DSM doesn’t want this information to be made “available,” either. Best just to stick to blaming guns, white supremacists, and hateful traditional values Americans don’t you think?

Is Paris Burning?

Anti-police fury spiralled further as a leaked police intelligence report today said: “We are at war with savage hordes of vermin.” [More]

Because that’s much more offensive than ingrates going to war against those who took them in and trying to burn down a civilization “refugees” fled toward rather than away from.

What better time for ordinary citizens to thank the government responsible for all those “commonsense gun safety laws“…?

Still Slow Going

The first wave of out-of-state relatives left today. My sister will still be here through the weekend so visiting and doing things with her will still occupy me during times I’d normally be working.

That being the case, blog postings will be limited– I’ll do some as time permits.

Please understand if I don’t get to all news tips. I plan to be back full bore next Monday.

SWAT’s Happening?

Author Patrick Tomlinson and his wife, business owner Niki Robinson, have been “swatted” at their home in Milwaukee more than 40 times, often resulting in police pointing guns at their heads. Their tormentors have also called in false bomb threats to venues using their names in three states. Yet law enforcement hasn’t been able to stop the calls. [More]

That ought to be a life sentence for the Swatter with capital punishment if their target is killed.

I also find it encouraging to see one more example showing the state is not as omnipotent as we’re led to believe.

We’re the Only Ones Running TOWARD Enough

Texas police have released body camera footage of the officer who neutralized the mass shooter at the Allen Outlet Mall without waiting for backup. He goes from telling little kids to wear their seatbelts to running toward the sound of gunshots. [Watch]

No Scot Peterson/Heroes of Uvalde Award for you!

UPDATE (For those of you who can’t access the link):

As We Forgive Those Only Concerned About Themselves?

In 2020, a paralyzed Walker said he’d forgiven the shooter. He told a judge on the stand that his life expectancy has been shortened 20 – 30 years from the shooting and that defendant Thomlison won’t even serve that much time in prison. [More]

It doesn’t sound like the stupid old bastard who shot him wants to be forgiven. It sounds like he just wants his sentence reduced.

We’re the Only Ones Racially Profiling Enough

Connecticut State Police troopers may have falsified tens of thousands of traffic stop records submitted to the state’s racial profiling data reporting program, potentially skewing the numbers to reflect more infractions for white drivers and fewer for Black and Hispanic motorists. [More]

I guess it’s OK if you do it to the disfavored.

I See Your True Colors Shining Through

Kennedy said that he would get behind a bipartisan assault weapons ban, which the overwhelming majority of Democrats support, but has little chance of getting through Capitol Hill given widespread GOP opposition. “If we can get a consensus on it, if Republicans and Democrats agree to it and it passes Congress, I would sign it,” he said. [More]

Told ya. Time and time again. That’s basically the whole Second Amendment in a nutshell.

Now would idiot “gun influencers” please stop floating this collectivist as a viable alternative? Because his popularity potential’s gonna backfire on them.

And would they please pull their heads out of their @$$es over the dangers of this…?

Just Like the Founders Used to Ban?

The Biden administration says its Defending new restriction on the possession of pistols with stabilizing braces parallels colonial times. [More]

Do they really want to go down that road?

This part bugged me:

He argued sawed-off shotguns are wildly inaccurate when fired, whereas braces make pistols more stable and accurate.

Does “our side” really want to go down THAT road?

Survey SAYS…

Several policy proposals that would further restrict access to guns or ammunition continue to receive support from majorities of Americans. Smaller shares of Americans support several more permissive policy proposals. [More]

You know what I’ve never seen a survey of?

How much respondents actually know about the issues they’re being questioned on…

Related UPDATE

Black Americans, Asian Americans and Latinos support gun measures more than any other racial group, according to a new study by the Pew Research Center. [More]

Is this where I rest my case?
